Engine conversions, best combinations, hit me....

Given the opportunity - what engine would you stick in what car, for fun?

I'm in love with the idea of an F20 in a BMW E36 328 Sport. Saw a vid of one 18 months or so ago, goose bumps.

S62 -> E30 M3

 

[Firestar_3x]

M3 Evo engine into a E36 Touring, very almost went and did this.

Would love to stick a 2.7 twin turbo S4 engine, running gear and rear suspension into mine.

You never ever molest an E30 M3.

Let's never have to discuss this again.

Whizz bang pop thou


S62 -> E30 325i Cab



Can't beat the 80's looks, unfortunatly now banned as it slices people in half

This.

There was a thread a little while ago about a Triumph TR6 rebuild with a BMW M3 engine in it - I very much liked that idea - was done very tastefully too.

Not sure about any others.

 

[Alibaba99]

RX-7 with LS2 power

 

[randal]

Always fancied the idea of a GT28RS 1.8T in a Corrado with a rallye floor pan and 4WD, dunno if anyone has done it but it sounds like a neat combo.

I know the 4WD/rallye conversion has been done on the rado a couple of times before, but not sure if it was mated to a BT 1.8.

 

[Siliconslave]

i always fancied the idea of a 13B-REW (twin turbo wankel from the rx7) in a car like the lotus 7.... small light engine in a small light car + silly power

 

[Howard]

One of Honda's screamiest VTEC engines, probably the S2k engine, in an MX-5.

And before anyone says it, the mk1 MX-5 weighs less than a ton. Lack of torque won't be an issue

 

[Atrox Moris]

RB26DETT in a Datsun 510.

 

[JediFragger]

F20C in a Caterham-like vehicle, or a CTR powered S2 Elise with Supercharger

 

[Confused]

I'm sticking a Nissan CA18DET (from the 200SX S13) into a Ford Anglia 105E.

 

[Gaijin]

Chooned 4G63 in a Proton Persona.

Sleeper stylee

Would love to stick a 2.7 twin turbo S4 engine, running gear and rear suspension into mine.

guy up near me put a 3.2 evo engine into an E30 touring with full E30 M3 suspension and some split rim BBS alloys. V Fast and uber street sleeper as the bodywork wasnt in that good condition

will see if i can dig up some pics

 

[Zuban]

I'm putting an Altezza rs200 engine/gearbox in an early 80's celica, will look crap but rwd, ~200bhp and ~1000kg should be fun .

 

[[TW]Fox]

N54B30 in a BMW 530i Sport.

Obviously.
